Who is Eddie Wolecki?

Edward "Eddie" Wolecki Black is a Scottish football former player and manager, who is currently the manager of Glasgow City ladies.

Wolecki was a player in the lower leagues of Scottish football, before becoming a coach at Dundee United under the management of both Jim McLean and Tommy McLean. After coaching stints with Brechin City and Arbroath, Wolecki became manager of Lochee United. Wolecki guided Lochee to the Scottish Junior Cup Final in 2005, which they lost to Tayport.

He was appointed manager of Montrose in December 2005, but David Robertson was then brought in as co-manager in June 2006. Wolecki was unhappy with this arrangement and left the club in September 2006 after agreeing a settlement with the club.

In October 2009, Wolecki was appointed to a full-time position with Glasgow City ladies, becoming the first salaried coach of a women's football team in Scotland.

Wolecki took sole charge of football affairs at City at the start of the 2011 season, when former manager Peter Caulfield refused an upstairs role. Caulfield subsequently joined rivals Celtic.
